The oldest cemetery in Johnson County is the Pioneer Park Cemetery. It is also known as Old Franklin Cemetery. Only a few stones remain; most were moved to Greenlawn Cemetery. James Crabtree is not listed among the thirty-five known burials at Pioneer Park Cemetery, nor is he listed in Greenlawn Cemetery. This information is from the "Johnson County, Indiana Cemetery Listings 2000," published by The Johnson County Museum of History.

Does anyone have a listing of the old cemetery in Franklin ? I am looking for a James Crabtree. He would have died circa 1880. I had found one in Edinburgh but this was not him.

Mt Moriah is located inside Camp Atterbury and never relocated. Most graves were relocated to Atterbury Cemetey. <br><br>You can obtain a CD of all Cemeteries in Johnson County from the Johnson County Museum of History. <a href="http://www.johnsoncountymuseum.org/" target="_blank">http://www.johnsoncountymuseum.org/</a>. They have a Master Index available also.<br><br> There are some Spellmans and quite a few Alexanders listed in the Master Index but not part of the relocation. There is an ARY J Alexander at Greenlawn as well as a James Maiden and a James B Hart located in Resthaven. I would suggest ordering the Master Index CD as well at the Blue River Index which has Atturbury, and Rest Haven Cemeteries. The books are $15 and I think the CD’s are $7 I have the books and use them a lot. I don't know if Bartholomew or Brown County and other Counties have anything like this but would be great if they do. They are an invaluable tool. <br>The book “The Atterbury File, The Next Generation” mentioned in the post is a good resource for information on families in the area as well. also available at the museum. Some of the information is available on line as well.

The Petits lived a few doors down from us on Graham St. In Franklin. My siblings and I would go down and rake the leaves or shovel the snow for Mrs. Petit because our Dad told us to. He would mow her lawn from time to time as well. I didn't think to question why we did it, Dad said to do it,that was good enough. Mrs. Petit was a nice lady. We were never to take money even if she offered. I finally asked "why" when I was a teenager and the only kid left at home. "Because, she lost one of her sons during WWII. I am asking you to take the place of some of the grandchildren she should have had." <br><br>To clarify,the family is a very nice one. Mrs. Petit's other adult children/grandchildren loved her and did plenty for her,far more than we attempted. It was just a life changing moment for me as a teen. 2015-05-23 14:34:03Ztrueblueblood78http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.indiana.counties.johnson/843.1.1/mb.ashxSusanna Beckley and William Cropper Adairhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.indiana.counties.johnson/1645/mb.ashx

Not related, just trying to help. I believe his parents were Jesse F Wilhite and Fanny K King who married in Johnson county on 23 Oct 1877. He is with his family in the 1880 census for Ind, Morgan county, Adams township, dist 264, page 13. In 1900 he is in New Orleans with the other members of his army unit. Hope this helps.

You are quite correct. NY records are very incomplete. However, here's what I have. It's based on the original work of Walter Smith [author of The Sterry Family of America] and Carolyn Magruder, who along with her sister Anne Sterry Henges, worked with Walter for many years. I have a lot of additional information on Silas Sterry's presumed father, William Sterry. Easier to email me direct on <a href="mailto://robert.sterry24@gmail.com">robert.sterry24@gmail.com</a><br><br>Silas C Sterry is the probable son of William Sterry [1794-aft 1852] and Eleanor.<br><br>No birth record has been located for Silas and his birth and parent information relies on census information. The census record [except for the 1850 which is assumed to be an error] states he was born in New York abt 1821. There are only three Sterry families living in New York in the 1830 census and only one with a male child of about 9 years: that of William Sterry at Kortright, Delaware. It is very probable therefore that Silas is William's son. In the 1830 census Silas had a younger sister aged under 5 years. Later census and vital records indicate this is almost certainly Delia.<br><br>Further information on the marriage of Silas and Marion [researched at NY State Archives, Albany by Carolyn Magruder]:<br>Delaware County Marriages, compiled by Minnie Cowan, Vol 2<br>1849 Oct 22 at the Head of Delaware by Rev.

By 1860, Silas, Marion and their children can be found in Edinburgh, Johnson, Indiana as shown on that census. In 1870, 49-year-old Silas, 38-year-old Marion, 14-year-old Emma, 10-year-old Cornelia, 3-year-old William and 1-year-old Laura Sterry are living in Jeffersonville Ward 4, Clark, Indiana. In 1880, 60-year-old Silas is a widower. He and his children, 24-year-old Emma, 13-year-old William and 5-year-old Clara are living in Jefferson, Clark, Indiana. Marion must have died between 1875 and the date of the census. Silas is listed in "Haddock´s General and Business Directory of Jeffersonville, IN and surroundings for 1877-78" as a carpenter. He is also listed in "Caron´s Directory for the City of New Albany, 1880-81", which is in Floyd County, Indiana. All this is from Ancestry.

Hello,<br><br>I need to order two death certificates for my daughters of the american revolution, but need help with a death look up to make sure they passed in Johnson county if anyone could help?<br><br>The first one is Samuel Richard Kincaid. He was born in August 1849 in Boone County IN. The last I can document him is in the 1900 Johnson County IN census in White River Township with his wife Hannah and their daughters Lizzie, Rosa and Lilly. <br><br>He must have passed sometime between 1900-1903 as Hannah remarried a Elmer R Trusty and they lived in Marion county per the 1910 1920 and 1930 census.<br><br><br>The second look up I need help with is John Wesley Kincaid. He died 07 April 1944 and is burried in the IOOF cemetery off of St RD 37 in Morgan County. He had several children living in Johnson County at the time, so its possible he died in Johnson County. Its also possible he died in Shelby county as the last I can document him is in the 1930 census living in Shelby County. I can't locate him in the 1940 census. Since he's buried in Morgan County, its possible he died there as well. <br><br>Any help would be greatlty appreciated. I'm hoping someone on the boards has access to death indexes and can assist me so I can send off to the right county for these death certificates.<br><br>Thanks!<br>Jenny2014-12-06 19:50:09Zfivebartonshttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.indiana.counties.johnson/1639/mb.ashxWilliam and Matilda Martinhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.indiana.counties.johnson/1638/mb.ashx
